Excelsior College Academic Societies

Alpha Sigma Lambda National Honor Society is an organization which recognizes adult learners for high scholastic attainment. It exists to inspire others to continue their education as they balance home and work lives.

The American Nuclear Society student section provides a means for students to develop professionally within the nuclear science and engineering field. Our quarterly virtual meetings provide social and professional networking opportunities to supplement your online and classroom experiences. Excelsior hosts the only virtual ANS student section, and the only section sponsored by a distance learning institution.

The Association for Computing Machinery Student Chapter provides forums, panel discussions, and symposia that further a student's professional development. Preparation and presentation of technical reports and papers and cooperative efforts on research projects allow students to test their technical expertise.

Excelsior hosts the Tau Kappa At-Large Chapter of Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing, which supports the learning, knowledge, and professional development of nurses. Membership is by invitation only.

Excelsior College's School of Business and Technology has been approved for a chapter of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).

SHRM chapters present an opportunity for students to network, learn more about human resource management, build relationships with local professionals, even host regular meetings with business individuals throughout the country to speak via the web on a variety of topics.
